Description
I have been working in the counselling field for the past 20 years. I specialize in helping people identify and achieve their personal goals. I offer different coping strategies for the issues related to distress, anxiety, dissociation and specific techniques to help clients heal from stress and trauma. I take great pride in the progress and success of my clients, and I look forward to helping you. I received MA in Psychology in 2002, and I am currently finalizing PhD studies in Psychology.

Trauma and Stress Counselling
Summary
Life's too short to be unhappy, unsure, or unfulfilled. If you are struggling with anxiety, stress, trauma or you need couples and family counselling, I can support you.
